Former Payette Boy Killed At McCall

James Abbott of McCall, 22-year-old son of Ed Abbott of that city and Mrs. 
Grace Abbott, Payette committed suicide Tuesday by shooting himself through the 
head.  Abbott formerly resided in Payette and leaves his mother and a brother 
who live near here.  He is also survived by his wife and small child who were 
visiting near Payette at the time of the shooting. 
Worry, because he had accidentally wounded a chum, W. E. Warner, in the foot 
earlier in the day was given as the youth's reason for taking his own life.  
Abbott called on Warner, apologized, then went to his grandmother's home at 
Lardo, a mile from McCall and went to bed.  Later he was found dead, with a gun 
in his hand and a second gun lying on the floor.
